FYI... sold my Beatrush rear beam brace... shipped out today.

Probably won't be able to find a trade partner for my Uras spoiler... so I'll stick to selling it if anyone is interested.

Update:

I've had less time to work on everything lately. I'm still making my fenders as perfect and as identical as possible.

Every time I feel like I've met my goals with the fenders ... I find another detail I can improve upon. Everything is working out so far though. Both are mounted... passenger side is basically where I need it. Driver side is close as well... there is a chance I'll have them ready for primer by Sunday or early next week.

I'll probably move on to the driver skirt and rear overfender... but I have the itch to get the front bumper aligned and fitted... we'll see.

A Heads Up:

My build is a hobby for me... one I enjoy very much... My build is like my canvas... it is what many would call a trailer queen even though it is built for the track. I don't race... not my thing... I just enjoy building and creating.

Needless to say I have crazy LOW mileage. I'm going to be taking pics of my wheels and tires this weekend so I can post them for sell here and probably IG and FB. They only have less than 600 miles on them... not 6000...600!

They are basically new...I don't peel out or drive in ways that would kill my tread life... so my tread life is probably around 95-97%.

Wheels Info:
Work XSA-04C
Black Polished
Fr 18x8.5 +41
R 18x9.5 +42

Made of latest low-pressure casting and barrel forming technology by WORK.

Big Brake clearance front and back.

Tire Info:
Yokohama S-Drive
F 255/35/18
R 265/35/18









Official FS post coming Saturday. I will sell wheels and tires separate.

ok... so I'm going to slow down a bit on this install...most likely not going to make Autocon in September like I hoped.

I'm a bit burnt out plus my work is sending me away to Arizona for a couple a weeks in July. Those 2 weeks will kill my planned September reveal. I have also been out of the gym for TOO long... I'm going to get my routine started again... I've been a gym rat basically all my life... it's killing me missing so much time.

I'm going to try to have my front fenders completely done before I leave though... that's the goal at least. I really want to post those once they are primed.

**Any Arizona peeps that want to hang out or need help and or a second set of hands/eyes on their installs PM me... perhaps we could arrange a meet.

Primed passenger side fender today... makes it so much easier to spot problem areas...



I still need to add filler to imperfections and to low spots, even out the high spots before blocking, primering, and sanding again...

I've beefed up and reshaped the pictured mounting flanges...both sides are now close to identical...





Added some fiberglass so this corner so it wraps around the A-pillar like a glove.



shitty pics... I know... I'll bust out the DSLR when the build is complete... for now... phone pics will have to do...

Nice update on the progress.

Even the car's underbody is so clean, how many miles on it?

So I've been back from my TDY to Tucson for a week now... I haven't really touched my build all week... that should change by the weekend. Ready to make more progress.

I haven't decided on a spoiler yet but I did sell my Uras one. I'm between the Five Axis and the Rallybacker v2 spoilers. The Five Axis matches the geometry of my JP Aero front lip so I'm leaning that way. I figure it is more cohesive, cost less, plus I'm installing the Battle Aero swan neck wing so I don't need a crazy spoiler.... the Big wang is already crazy enough. lol

I'm more than likely going to order those sweet plug and play Morimoto head lights with the built-in turn signal. The gloss black housing should look great with my gloss black/black anodized wheels.

I don't think I'll be ready for show this year... my biggest hangup will probably be finding the right painter for my build and the money it is going to cost to pay them.

My focus will likely be getting the front fender completed.... primered and blocked. I will need to mold the garnish. Updated pics coming soon...
